Adding more information about BrowserStack products

edit

BrowserStack has two products for cross-browser testing: Live and Automate. Short descriptions of both would be helpful to understand what those products are, and how they accomplish cross-browser testing. An independent resource: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/software-engineer/browserstack-simplifies-web-application-testing/
